Class FrcSerialPortDevice

java.lang.Object
trclib.robotcore.TrcSerialBusDevice
frclib.robotcore.FrcSerialPortDevice

public class FrcSerialPortDevice extends TrcSerialBusDevice
This class implements a platform dependent serial port device (UART). It extends TrcSerialBusDevice to provide asynchronous request queue support and creates the SerialPort device using WPILib.

  • Method Details

    • readData

      public byte[] readData(int address, int length)
      This method is called to read data from the device with the specified length.
      Specified by:
      readData in class TrcSerialBusDevice
      Parameters:
      address - specifies the data address if any (not applicable for SerialPort).
      length - specifies the number of bytes to read. If zero, read all that has been received.
      Returns:
      a byte array containing the data read.
    • writeData

      public int writeData(int address, byte[] buffer, int length)
      This method is called to write data to the device with the specified data buffer and length.
      Specified by:
      writeData in class TrcSerialBusDevice
      Parameters:
      address - specifies the data address if any (not applicable for SerialPort).
      buffer - specifies the buffer containing the data to be written to the device.
      length - specifies the number of bytes to write.
      Returns:
      number of bytes written.
